Champions League Finale
We did the Kyiv backyards walking tour with Alina and had a very interesting and relaxing time. Alina was enthusiastically giving us an insight in Kiew life now and back in the old days, knowing lots of interesting details. We had a wonderful time!!
Flexible, communicative, friendly and knowledgeable
I recently used Alina as a guide recently in Kiev. I had limited time split over 2 days - she was flexible and worked with me on a great schedule. She is very friendly and caring, and is available anytime to answer questions. Her knowledge for off-beat and hidden treasures of Kiev is commendable as well - I would highly recommend her.
